Abstract

This paper presents the reference design of the radially viewing horizontal neutron profile monitor for ITER. It incorporates integral neutron shielding, and with full machine integration, should provide control and plasma diagnostic information based on the deduced neutron emission profile. Information can be obtained on total neutron emission (fuel burn-up rate), alpha-particle birth profile, plasma position and the time dependent effects of plasma instabilities such as sawteeth.
